Sylvester Gomez was in the midst of spoon-feeding L porridge when the news broke. L, in response, swiftly pushed Sylvester''s hand away and wrestled herself off hisp. Sylvester had an inkling that this situation was about to take a turn for the worse.
He spun around to confront the servant who had switched on the television, his voice a harsh bark, "Who gave you permission to turn on the TV? Shut it off."
The servant recoiled at his outburst and stammered, "I''m sorry, sir. I didn''t mean to."
She felt unjustly used. It was a daily routine for the master to watch the financial news live stream at this hour, and the on-duty servant was expected to turn on the TV.
This was the norm, and no one had ever been reprimanded for it before. She was at a loss as to why the master was so irate this time.
Just as she was about toply with his order and turn off the TV, L snatched the remote control from her hand, refusing to let her switch it off.
Witnessing L''s agitation, Sylvester felt a weight settle in his heart. Who could be so thoughtless as to provoke this reaction?
Good, he thought.
He was eager to see who had the audacity to be so reckless.
L positioned herself in front of the couch, her gaze riveted on the TV screen.
The host of the entertainment news channel prattled on, even disying a blurred photograph deemed potentially inappropriate for viewers.
L''s lips thinned, her eyes reddening as she swiftly reached for her phone.
By this point, the inte was already in an uproar.
Flora Harrison, although not an A-list celebrity, was known for her attractive looks and the innocent, demure image she had cultivated since her debut. Despite her minor celebrity status, she had amassed a significant fan base. Aside from a few industry insiders, the public viewed her as a beloved national figure. The older generations admired her for her good looks, impressive acting skills, and roles in popr TV shows.
But now, this very person was embroiled in a scandalous controversy.
Even the most reputable television stations were openly naming and criticizing her.
This was bound to be a devastating blow to her reputation.
L''s grip on the remote tightened before she tossed it aside and bolted upstairs.
Her phone was upstairs.
L unlocked her phone and began scrolling through the inte. The TV was one thing, but online, the situation was entirely different.
In this era of inte freedom, where there were nows to prevent it, anyone could be a keyboard warrior.
